project Opal Legbar hatching eggs
12+ eggs from pen containing all Opal roosters covering split hens. These eggs will hatch 50% Opal Legbars and 50% splits (Cream Legbars carrying the lavender gene). These are F6 eggs. I'm still working on test breeding for white egg gene. All eggs shipped are blue. BIN $90 includes shipping, USA only. NPIP AI clean, ships from Missouri. Cannot ship to VA. Eggs will ship
Opal Legbars are a new beautiful addition to the line-up of autosexing breeds. This breed has everything you love and want all in one package. They are barred lavender birds with cute crests, blue eggs, and best of all, they are autosexing! Know which chicks are males and which are pullets as soon as they hatch!
Opal Legbar males are beautifully barred lavender with golden highlights. The barring lightens the lavender feathers giving them a silver appearance. When the sun hits them just right, these birds glimmer! The golden highlights, contrasting the silvery barred lavender, is absolutely stunning.
Opal Legbar hens are pearl gray with either silver barring or light straw yellow accenting around their necks. Their darker color compliments the males’ lighter silvery color perfectly. Some hens also have light peach breasts.
Opal LegBars lay bountiful quantities of blue eggs. As with all blue egg layers, color perception is dependent on light conditions in which they are viewed, as well as the laying cycle of the hen.
Opal LegBars are autosexing. This means you can easily distinguish males from pullets at day old by the down color of the chicks. Males are lighter colored and have a white head spot while pullets are darker and have distinct chipmunk stripes.
Opal Legbars follow the same genetic breeding structure as other lavender birds. Birds need two copies of the lavender gene to express the lavender color. Breed back to good Cream Legbar stock to improve type and feather quality.
This stunning variety of legbar will surely become one of the most popular breeds available. Don’t miss your chance to be one of the first persons to own them!
BIN $90. These are pullet eggs, a bit on the small side still. First to post sold gets them.
If you happen to get more, please save my tag! I just got an Opal(Isabel, blue/cream) Brahma hen and now I am obsessed. Even found a Silkie with the coloring. Yours are gorgeous and the eggs are lovely too!
So is this a recurring Buy It Now, for the prices listed in your last post, instead of an auction? Sorry, just trying to clarify since it seems people are confused
An auction should have a listed start date (usually the time of posting), a listed opening bid, and a listed end time and date, at which point the person who has bid the most wins and gets the eggs for that price.
For a Buy It Now, you list a certain amount of eggs you have ready to ship, for a set price, and anyone can buy them at any time for that price.
HiI will, once mine start laying for the year!
do you have any Roman tufted eggs or goslings for sale?
